Letter: Thank you, council

We would like to publicly express our profound gratitude to the Steamboat Springs City Council for their hard work and commitment to fire and emergency services in our community.

The council appears poised to form a citizens committee at its Dec. 4 meeting to address this critically important issue.

We are absolutely convinced that a consensus plan can be developed that properly funds fire/EMS — and our incredible first responders — and that saves taxpayers money and enjoys widespread community support.
